Looks sort of like what we have here. As a matter of fact,
the link showed up at the bootom of Audioroundtable.

Who can keep track of it all?

So more forums there are,the less traffic each will get ...

Don't know if that logic works but I think that Full Range
and AudioRoundtable have the best and most consistent
members.


Others tend to spread themselves too thin. I would like
to be able to keep up with Madisound and Parts Express
Forums too. But the only way to keep from going insane is
to drop in occassionally or take specific questions into
specific discussions.


I think certain of the forums tend to be what I would
call 'old school.' They concentrate on certain types of
design to the exclusion or derision of others.


But the fact that AR and Full Range draw some of the
same top talent is telling.

Yep, you're right, and I'm worried about it too. Survival of the fittest, the internet sites are falling like flies. Soon we'll be down to just two or three of them left.

    the madisound forum moves so fast,they really should upgrade its code...and split it into different categories
    ,but only perhaps 2 or 3

    Some make the mistake of splitting into every single forum catergory possible ,reducing traffic in each. Sometimes its good to see stuff ur not usualy interestd in !!!

    I think I agree with you. But then again, splitting out a messageboard into different parts requires a lot of work or else you just start from scratch. So maybe it's better to start out with all the ones you think you'll need, even if it means a slow start for some at first.

    This is my reason for beating the drum for RSS. I personally
    can't remember all the stuff I need to keep track of.

    I'm using an open source browser from Mozilla called
    Firefox. RSS is an extension that is available free.


    Which reminds me, I have to go into newsgroups from
    Usenet and find out which is a good starter book for
    Linux. Was down at the Barnes and Noble and found a
    couple that include Linux starter disks. I will need
    my hand held on getting Linux going... sort of like here. :-)
